Hey Hey... Here's the scoop. I've been into the drums when I was 15ish. I am a great one arm drummer. I'm interested in joining a band. I like to play pure rock & roll songs. I was in a Country Christian Band that I quit in 2017. I want more... more than just a steady beat... I am currently playing the harmonica(s) with a little jam session we go every Thursday.

Influences
I really don't know if this is influences but, I love to hear John Bonham, Buddy Rich, Gene Krupa, Dennis Chamber, Ian Paice, Keith Moon & others playing. I, on the other hand, play in a different way, because I am an one handed drummer. For most people, my playing doesn't sound anything different than other people playing a drum set, but the ones with a keen ear, my playing is very distinct by inoculate that it doesn't matter.
I am also interested in the blues; Howlin' Wolf, Muddy Waters, Mississippi John Hurt, and tons of others.

EQUIPMENT
I have my own drum set (pdp dw). It has a great kick. I also have congas & bongos.
I have played with brushes, Hot Rods, Cool Rods, 5A, & 7A sticks. 7A are my favorites. I can get more feel...
I also picked up the harmonica. I have a few nice Seydels. Definitely getting more...

Well it is Bonham playing, but I like to simulate them & that track when I play... I love those half beat shuffles...
